So let me get this straight, Americans mistreat a couple of Iraqi prisoners, a whole scandal erupts, and for a short while American public opinion seemed mixed on the Iraq issue. More than ever there were people crying that we should have never gone, and the Americans were now the bad guys infront of the world. Now, these Muslim militants behead an American, making the American public very angry, and possibly even go back to their previous support of the Iraq war. Just me, or these Muslim militants have no clue how politics really works?

When discussing muslim militants, as a general rule you arent discussing people who deal well with reality.
 
This will be on the news for all of five minutes, then people will put it out of their minds and get back to focusing on how horrible our government and military are.
 
I'd say this regardless of any beheadings... the US prison incident was the one of the dumbest things the US could've done. WhoTF decided to do that sh!t .. much less put it on tape ? I wonder about the maturity of ATOT, but to see that kind of thing out there... unbefvckinlievable.

Remember that terrorists wants Jihad, contrary to the vast majority of the arab people.

I don't see the arab population in an uproar over this either. I think there is a huge following over there that is sympathetic to those who choose to butcher and maim Westerners in the name of Allah....The same reason we have a large group hiding Osama, yet ever video of him has him walking around like there is not 50k Marines looking for him.

In the US, if an Arab gets beaten, not beheaded mind you, down by a bunch of drunken rednecks, the rednecks get thrown in jail for a few years to think it off. Over there if it were to happen they would have a parade in his honor and name their children after him.

Are you trying to justify murder by a few stupid pictures and video?

Did anybody die? Did anybody get physically wounded or mutilated?

Ok then. Who cares if they embarassed and hurt the feelings of people who wish they could behead every American they could find? I sure as hell don't

Putting humans on top of humans simulating sex acts and laughing at it is childish in and of itself. And to do it with POWs makes me think a bunch of 18 year olds fresh out of HS run the prisons. That's all I said.

Undoubtedly it happens... if it means acquiring vital information, it must be done. I'm not blind to that fact and I am indifferent about it.

The videos we saw were nothing like it and the purpose I need not argue. That was pitiful.

Another funny thing about this, is that it was the Americans that started the investigation on the abuse of US prisoners trying to more or less to protect them (to save face in front of the world or what not). And these Arab "rednecks" if you will, go out a kill .... no even better behead an American, I say release those soldeirs that are in prison for "Abusing" Arab prisoners and have them go at it again. Just my personal view on this.

Bingo.
 
The fact that nobody got hurt doesn't make it any less sick and demented. Just like the beheadings though obviously on different scales. I've already made my point about them being stupid and obviously you agree with me.

says his throat was cut, not sure about the beheading

It was cut clean off. I have the video. They started at the front and sawed it off like they were cutting a steak or something.

Why would you search for and watch the video? That's just sick.

Do you ever watch porn? Do you ever watch violent movies? Do you cover your eyes when a girl walks by who's got a shirt that rides too low?

STFU. :|

you're an idiot

Ok... let me make it clearer... the fact that nobody got hurt doesn't make the humiliation any less sick and demented.

I hope you are not shittin' me. How do you compare humiliation and beheading? Do you actually believe Saddam Hussein used the humiliation method to control all of Iraq for the last several decades?😕

Actually, I believe that a number of Iraqi detainees have been seriously fvcked up or killed. Not that I'm excusing this latest development.

I'm actually surprised it took this long for something like this to come out of Iraq.
 
^^^ see this is where it starts... you do something to me and I do it back. How about we stick to our guns and just play it out instead of playing "but they started it" ?
